If you ever lost your phone.

Monday, April 15, 2013

I'm not sure whether you guys
experienced losing your phone or not, you prolly might want to read
this post cuz you can never know someday you might lost your phone. I
mean I never thought that I will lost my phone but yes, I did lost my
phone in a friend's house party, last year. I know right, IN A
FRIENDS's HOUSE. Blame myself for always leaving my phone everywhere
and I finally get to taste what is like for losing a phone.

I mean no one will ever expect their
phone will go missing, I seriously never expected but what happens,
happened. Contacts, important notes, pictures all gone. Worst things
is, I never have any security protection. I DIDN'T EVEN SET A
PASSCODE LOCK. I'm not sad that my phone is gone, I'm sad that the
things inside are all gone. Luckily I didn't take any weird pictures
lolllll. So I just have to accept that I lost my phone.

So here's a few tips for you to keep
your phone protected, well you never know if one day your phone just
gone * pfttttt...*. I mean if you left it at somewhere and it's gone,
someone prolly stole it. It's Malaysia, I think there's only 1 out of
1000 people will return your phone.

1. SET PASSCODE LOCK

Just incase you have anything important
inside your phone, the people who stole wont get to check it ( I do
know people who save their passwords in their phone notes ).

2. iCloud

Good thing if you're an apple user, do
sync to iCloud so you can at least have a backup. If i'm not wrong
they have this Find My iPhone thing.

Good news for Maxis users, you can now
sign up for Maxis Norton Mobile Security app that designed specially
for Android users.

One thing risky about Adroid phones is
that because they are so popular, there number of untrusted sites,
third party apps and physical thefts that will hack your mobile
activities and personal data, including passwords even if you didn't
lost your phone.

I highly recommend to get this Maxis
NortonMobile Securityapp
for your Android phone's sake.
